ALTRA

Altra is a new technology, not an improvement to an existing system. The latest patent is a first issuance and is described as pure invention. The system utilizes a two-chambered system, which mechanically couples to the drive mechanism during loading. Traditional IV pumps essentially squeeze a tube with brute force to deliver fluids which in turn leads to major infusion related problems. Instead Altra's system, inspired by the human heart is designed to deliver fluids naturally and is unaffected by pressure, rate or any of the other factors that influence current devices. This translates to groundbreaking improvements in performance, safety, and portability... *This website presents an IV pump in the developmental stage. Please note that the device described herein has not been tested in the market and has not received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
